orienteering (Urban) 15:56 [5] 2.0 km (7:58 / km)
JK Sprint at Brunel University -2.02 mins 12/85, prepared well and warmed up well but quite disappointed by execution - had not actually done this type of sprint so a bit flustered by the pace - no mistakes but splits illustrate time loss.
No 2 had not really sorted this leg out, heisitation mid leg and then looked far too early
No 3 was not sure about feature
No 5 ran first part hard but then significant misreading of map took me to parallel feature -30secs time loss?
No 9 suddenly lost place on map, went to wrong control and seemed to take ages to relocated
No 10 had to wait for non orienteering family with small child to move so I could access control.
So up to No.10 average leg placing was 23rd even though I had a 3rd, remainder of course average for remainder was 9th,
Just under 15 mins might have been possible - in retrospect top 10 would have been a good result
